 * Hi, I have a block plugin called “[Safelayout Elegant Icons](https://wordpress.org/plugins/safelayout-elegant-icons)”,
   which adds a new format to the Gutenberg Rich text (using the [registerFormatType](https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/how-to-guides/format-api/)
   function).
   Using this new format, the user can add icons inside text blocks like
   Heading and Paragraph.(See here: [https://youtu.be/Ip82xAIFuGs](https://youtu.be/Ip82xAIFuGs))
 * Problem: The new format works fine with blocks like Heading and Paragraph, but
   when I try to edit the **site menu**, everything is fine in the editor, but **
   the icons are not displayed correctly in the frontend**.

 * Note: I use the CSS “background-image” property to store the icons, which seems
   to not be stored correctly in the navigation menu.
